Women have shared with me how Planned Parenthood violated them, and the pain of losing their babies. For years now, I have volunteered to advance the pro-life cause – because anything else would contradict my Christian faith and the medical ethics I swear to uphold.

Groups such as Live Action, Americans United for Life and Bound4LIFE have documented the horrors inside Planned Parenthood for many years, sharing with anyone who would listen. This latest investigation brings it into sharp focus… and it isn’t going away.

All who watch the first video of Dr. Deborah Nucatola – at a lunch with someone she believed to be a buyer of fetal organs – can only describe the conversation as disgusting. This doctor calmly sips wine and enjoys a salad while she coldly discusses how to “crush” the baby above and below the desired organs, in order to preserve those organs for interested buyers.

Dr. Nucatola is not a low-level provider working in a facility remote from Planned Parenthood’s administration. She is the Senior Director for Medical Services: one of her responsibilities is the training of Planned Parenthood doctors in the techniques of abortion.

During the lunch, she admits that this practice is intended to become more pervasive at local abortion centers. Dr. Nucatola acknowledges Planned Parenthood doesn’t want this information to be publicized: “I will tell you that, behind closed doors, these conversations are happening with the affiliates.”

Within two days of the video release, Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards stated that Planned Parenthood does not profit from the sale of fetal organs and tissue. Then another video released.

In it, Dr. Mary Gatter is having lunch with individuals she believed to be buyers of fetal organs and tissue. It is important to understand that federal law allows a facility like a Planned Parenthood clinic to be compensated for providing human tissue for research (as long as the patient has consented, which is in question).

Federal law, however, only allows the facility to be reimbursed for the actual cost of processing and providing the tissue to the buyer. This would be a fixed cost; it would not be a cost that is open to negotiation. Current lawsexpressly forbid profiting from the sale of human tissues and organs.

Dr. Gatter’s statements, perhaps even colder than Dr. Nucatola’s, reveal that Planned Parenthood sees this as an opportunity to profit above the actual cost of the processing and preparation of the organs harvested from aborted children.

Because all that is allowed by federal law is reimbursement for the actual cost, there should be no need to haggle with the buyers over price.

Since prices would be limited to the actual cost, there would be no need for comments such as these made by Dr. Mary Gatter: – “I just don’t want to lowball.” – “I want a Lamborghini.” – “If it’s still low, then we can bump it up.”

Even more condemning is the fact that Dr. Gatter reveals a willingness to deviate from standard practices and increase the risk to the patient by using a “less crunchy” method of harvesting organs.

She says, “I wouldn’t object” to using a method that employs hand-held suction to remove the baby’s body parts instead of mechanical power suction. The use of power suction minimizes the chance that any fetal parts or placental tissue will remain — and retained tissue is one of the most common complications after an abortion.

Retained tissue increases the risk of hemorrhage and infection, as well as increasing the chance the patient will need another procedure to fully remove all the tissue. It also increases the risk to her future fertility.

These higher levels of risk to the patient are acceptable to Dr. Gatter, apparently in order to get her closer to owning that Lamborghini.

Now, a third and even more disturbing video has been released. This one comes largely from footage obtained by a whistleblower that worked as a ‘procurement technician’ for one of the companies to whom Planned Parenthood sells baby body parts. It is not a video obtained over a lunch; it has footage from inside the lab in a Planned Parenthood facility.

People are shown dissecting what they call an “11 and 6″ — a human being who was 11 weeks and 6 days along in the pregnancy. The images and the commentary show the baby’s humanity and discuss its head, its spine, and its kidneys.

The baby is coldly referred to as a “five star specimen.” A Planned Parenthood employee named Dr. Ginde says, “I think a per-item thing works a little better, just because we can see how much we can get out of it.”

It is not possible to say that these things are “deceptively edited” or “taken out of context.” The words and images speak for themselves.

Americans are right to be disgusted over these practices. Yet those of us appalled are incorrect if we feel there is nothing that can be done. Congress and the Obama Administration have the power to investigate these practices. They also have the power to withdraw taxpayers’ funding currently being utilized by Planned Parenthood.

The federal government provides more than $500 million annually to Planned Parenthood. The Obama Administration has declared that it will not withdraw funding; he is not worried about the political implications of that stance, as Mr. Obama cannot run for the office of the President again. He has nothing to lose. Members of Congress, however, always have the next election foremost in their minds.

What do we do? How do we handle this opportunity? The progressive left has a saying: “Never let a serious crisis go to waste.” We need to resolve that we will not let these revelations go to waste. Before discussing specific calls to action, we should consider certain spiritual truths that help us understand our role.

The Bible tells us that we can understand many of God’s attributes by observing nature and all that has been created. Please consider some rather simple and easily understood observations.

Did you know that there is no such thing as cold? Cold is really the natural state of things in the absence of something. When an object is cold, it lacks heat. Heat is a real thing. Heat is a form of energy, without which things are cold.

Darkness is not a real thing in itself. Darkness is the natural state of things in the absence of light. Cold and dark are not necessarily the opposites of heat and light – they are descriptions of the natural state of things in the absence of heat and light.

Few moral people disagree when we say, Planned Parenthood’s actions are evil. Consider this question: is evil a real thing? Or is evil simply the natural state of things in the absence of good? And what is the ultimate source of good in the world. The answer, of course, is God Himself.

Next we must ask ourselves, Why is goodness so increasingly absent from our society? Because we have been silent for too long. We have not been effective salt and light. How do we overcome the evil? Much like we overcome a cold room when we turn on the heater, and we banish darkness when we turn on the lights – we overcome evil by applying goodness.

The Church can no longer be silent or passive on this issue, nor can its members. The natural state of things in our fallen world has become more dominant, because the Church and our people have been silent and ineffective.

How do we use our voices on this matter? Here are six practical, effective steps each of us can take.

We pray. You can talk to our Father anywhere, anytime. Perhaps God is calling you to go one step further, and join those who pray in front of abortion centers.

We speak truth from the pulpit without hesitation and without consideration of reprisal – because we teach the whole counsel of God’s Word.

We involve ourselves in the community, perhaps advancing adoption and foster care in our churches.

We continue to speak truth about the injustice of abortion using whatever means at our disposal – especially social media. We cannot let these revelations result in nothing; if we do, what worse things will be required to touch the hearts of the people?

We pray for those involved in the abortion industry – especially people in positions of authority like Dr. Nucatola, Dr. Gatter and Cecile Richards. We serve a God who can change hearts and transform lives. Some of the most effective pro-life advocates and activists are those who have come out of the abortion industry.

When there is an absence of good, evil is the natural state of things – like what we have seen from Planned Parenthood in these recent revelations.

God has instructed us to apply goodness to our society and the world around us by being salt and light. Let us all take this responsibility seriously.

http://bound4life.com/blog/2015/03/03/watch-according-to-their-own-reports-planned-parenthood-increasingly-provides-only-one-service-abortions/#commentsTue, 03 Mar 2015 15:00:01 +0000Josh M. Shepherdhttp://bound4life.com/?p=8203As debate heats up in Washington over the federal budget, new research shines light on the growth in taxpayers’ funding for Planned Parenthood — the largest provider of abortions in America while, according to new data, “pregnancy related services” are an ever-shrinking portion of its business.

The new report “Abortion, Inc.” from Americans United for Life (AUL) provides detailed annual figures on federal funds received — making note of Planned Parenthood’s overall $700 million profit in recent years, a significant sum for a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization.

AUL President Dr. Charmaine Yoest walks through what her group uncovered in a video accompanying the report:

Yoest brings attention to the fact of Planned Parenthood’s increased taxpayer funding since 2007, despite an economic climate where families and businesses across America have had to cut back on spending.

Since 2007, Planned Parenthood has received $3.6 billion in taxpayer dollars (Source: AUL)

A mother of five herself, Yoest decries the hypocrisy of Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA) supposedly providing pregnancy-related services.

“Under Cecile Richards’ tenure at Planned Parenthood, the number of abortions performed by Planned Parenthood has gone up,” Yoest notes. “Other services like breast screenings have gone down.”

In a recent interview with Bound4LIFE, Dr. Michael New of Charlotte Lozier Institute backs up these statistics. “Most of Planned Parenthood’s revenue comes through performing abortions. Most people outside the pro-life movement don’t know that, because public campaigns by Planned Parenthood make disingenuous claims.”

Planned Parenthood reports its number of “clients” dropped from 2006 to 2013 (Source: AUL).

While seeing fewer clients, last year PPFA performed over 300,000 abortions (Source: AUL)

Abortion-rights advocates including RH Reality Check counter that every U.S. federal budget since 1977 — including President Obama’s FY 2016 proposed budget released on February 2 — has incorporated the Hyde Amendment, which bans direct federal funding of abortion.

However, in addition to the questionable practice of funding Planned Parenthood, taxpayers have been directly paying for abortion services in recent years… due to battles the abortion giant has waged in state and federal courts.

“Currently, 17 states fund abortion through Medicaid,” notes Michael New, referencing the federal health program designed for low-income families. Guttmacher Institute, a pro-abortion research group, released a report only weeks ago that confirms this latest figure.

“Most of the states that fund abortion do so because of a court order,” Dr. New continues. “It’s not a measure that state legislators or the people have voted for, rather it’s under the guise of a court order.”

New reflects on the bigger picture: “Over the decades, the pro-life movement has generally been proficient at raising the alarm and ensuring the federal government is not involved in funding abortion directly. Poll after poll shows most Americans agree with this stance.”

“These 17 states happen to be the most politically liberal states, places like Oregon, California and New York,” New observes. “Some have talked of ballot measures in these states, though that has costs associated with it. I don’t see pro-life groups having the funds to run a successful ballot campaign statewide in many places.”

For the past decade, New has shown through research that cutting off public funding for abortion results in abortion numbers going down. “There is a wide consensus on this among economists, social scientists, public health researchers — Guttmacher even agrees with it.”

As to Planned Parenthood, New praises recent media-driven efforts: “The excellent work of Lila Rose and her team at Live Action, exposing the truth of what happens in these abortion centers, has tarnished Planned Parenthood’s public image.”

“That said, it would be difficult for Congress to defund Planned Parenthood’s taxpayer subsidies — though well worth pursuing to save defenseless lives,” concludes New.

The No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion and Abortion Insurance Full Disclosure Act, passed by the House by a vote of 242-179 on January 22, 2015, and now introduced in the Senate as S. 582, seeks to provide a “permanent, government-wide prohibition of taxpayer funding for abortion.”

Supported by major pro-life groups, the bill makes an important statement; yet, even if passed by the Senate, President Obama would likely veto it. Thus, many have honed in on making adjustments to the federal budget — considered “must-pass” legislation by the new majority, following five years of Congress failing to pass a budget.

Next steps in the complex federal budget process will happen under the oversight of Senate Budget Committee Chairman Mike Enzi (R-WY), an accountant by trade who plans to work closely with his colleagues in the U.S. House. “We will negotiate with the House,” Enzi said in a recent hearing. “We will pass a common budget resolution.”

Pro-life advocates are making the case for budget proposals that save lives, getting the government out of funding China’s one-child policy via the United Nations and out of backing America’s top abortion provider: Planned Parenthood.

“A groundswell of pro-life momentum swept many conservative leaders into office this past November,” says Bound4LIFE Director Matt Lockett referring to the mid-term elections. “Our prayer is that these men and women will now consider how they can protect innocent human lives — even in a task as complex as passing the federal budget.”

UPDATE (3/26/15): On Wednesday, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) released a report that confirmed these funding figures. The report covers a three-year period (2010-2012). It found that Planned Parenthood and its affiliates received $344.5 million in federal funds and another $1.2 billion in funding from Medicaid (which includes a combination of federal and state funds) for a total of $1.5 billion over three years from federal programs.

“This is shameful and we have a responsibility to stop it,” said Representative Diane Black (R-TN). “As a nurse for more than 40 years, I know that abortion is not health care. In light of this report, Congress should act swiftly by passing the Title X Abortion Provider Prohibition Act, which would help cut off federal funding of organizations like these that promote the destruction of unborn life.”

Shepherdhttp://bound4life.com/?p=7715Today, the 114th U.S. Congress will be called into session. Members of Congress will take their oaths to uphold the Constitution — wherein the Fourteenth Amendment states in part, “…nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property.”

The movement to protect defenseless pre-born lives advances into the new year with much hope. Before moving forward, it’s instructive to look back over the past year: to consider what was accomplished, and what remains undone.

It shocked many Supreme Court observers when, on January 24, 2014, Justice Sotomayor (appointed by President Obama in 2009) faced a question on abortion policy… and ruled in favor of life.

Under the new health law, would a group of Catholic nuns who perform charity work in a non-church capacity be forced to pay for contraceptives in their insurance plan? Justice Sotomayor granted the Little Sisters of the Poor an injunction, allowing their life-saving work to continue unimpeded by Obamacare… for now.

7. Film to Expose Abortionist Kermit Gosnell Crowd-Funded at Over $2 Million

Hollywood studios spent billions in 2014 trying to crack the elusive “faith and family” market with big-budget flicks like Noah and Exodus. When talented true believers got behind the camera, many of the year’s best films came together — from dystopian drama The Giver to the documentary One Generation Away and beyond.

The 77 year-old grandmother’s case nullified a Massachusetts “buffer zone” law, which obstructed free speech around an abortion center’s entrance. However, only weeks later Massachusetts passed a similar law.

As federal lawmakers have (thus far) failed to enact national measures to protect pre-born lives, state legislators have taken up the pro-life cause in recent years — with some degree of success. The pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute’s figures tell the story:

States’ pro-life laws are not one-size-fits-all, as Americans United for Life chronicles every year. Some are informed-consent laws, some safety and health regulations, and others affirm medical professionals’ freedom of conscience (among many other types of laws.) These laws have forced unsafe, unsanitary abortion centers to close, including 73 facilities over the past year. More than 700 abortion centers remain open nationwide.

However, many pro-life state laws have been challenged in court by well-financed pro-abortion special interests; the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans, Louisiana will hear the latest case against Texas’ pro-life law on January 7.

3. Christian Missionaries Lead the Fight Against Deadly Ebola Outbreak

A missionary doctor serving the poorest of the poor in Africa would never expect to be named TIME Magazine‘s 2014 Person of the Year and the 2014 Texan of the Year. Dr. Kent Brantly, medical director with international relief organization Samaritan’s Purse, went unnoticed serving at the Eternal Love Winning Africa Hospital in Monrovia, Liberia… until he was one of the first Americans to contract Ebola.

Brantly credits God for his survival, including in a recent hour-long NBC News Special:

“I survived, and I want to give credit to God for bringing me through that… When I see how every piece of the puzzle came together to provide me with the care that I received, I see the hand of God at work, and I have to give Him glory.”

Samaritan’s Purse, founded in 1970, provides practical aid and medical support in over 100 countries worldwide. Franklin Graham, son of evangelist Billy Graham and the organization’s president, is an outspoken pro-life advocate.

2. America at Its Best: Pro-Life Victories in Tennessee and Nationwide

“Obamacare has been on a collision course with Americans’ individual liberty and religious freedom from the beginning,” notes Sarah Torre of The Heritage Foundation. “The Supreme Court decision in the Hobby Lobby case prevented Obamacare’s Department of Health and Human Services mandate from careening into the religious freedom of family business owners.”

On Thursday, the Tenth Circuit once again ruled against Obama’s HHS Mandate that requires many employers to provide abortion-inducing drugs as part of employee insurance packages. The Tenth Circuit was the Court of Appeals that ruled against the abortion pill mandate in the Hobby Lobby case, and it relied on its previous ruling.

The case decided on Thursday involves Hercules Industries, an HVAC manufacturer based in Colorado and owned by the Newland family. To succeed on its claim against the mandate, Hercules must show that “(1) it is a person protected under [the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993]; (2) compliance with the Regulation would substantially burden its religion; and (3) HHS cannot show that the Regulation is the least restrictive means to meet a compelling government interest.” The Tenth Circuit believes that all three elements will likely be met. Therefore, there was no abuse of discretion by the District Court when they issued the preliminary injunction, temporarily stopping the HHS mandate from applying to Hercules Industries.

The case is now back to the District Court, where it will sit until the Supreme Court decides whether it will hear the Hobby Lobby case.

Every American, including family business owners, should be free to live and do business according to their faith. In appealing the district court’s order that halted the mandate against Hercules, the administration sent a clear message that it wants to force families to abandon their faith in order to earn a living. That’s the opposite of religious freedom. The 10th Circuit was right to uphold the district court’s order and protect the Newland family’s religious liberty at least until the U.S. Supreme Court decides whether to extend religious freedom to similar families across the country.

http://bound4life.com/blog/2013/05/06/inhuman-its-personal/#commentsMon, 06 May 2013 16:14:55 +0000Jess Clarkhttp://bound4life.com/?p=4735I watched the recent LiveAction videos with a horrible sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. There’s nothing in this business that’s easy to hear, any way you look at it, it’s a barbaric procedure. But these interviews about babies at 23 and 24 weeks or later are horrifying on a personal level, and they need to be seen.

If you know my story, you know that I’ve given birth to 3 sons at 24 weeks gestation. I’ve looked at their miniature but perfect facial features, how they looked like us, and I’ve watched them calm to the sound of my voice, their elevated heartbeats literally slowing and stabilizing as I would speak softly. I’ve seen them sleep while my husband sang outside their incubators. I’ve watched dedicated medical professionals treat my tiny children with such gravitas and respect, giving them every chance to live and grow strong. I have felt the aching sweetness of their entire hands wrapped around my fingertip, and I know that touch brought them comfort and peace, because it brought me comfort and peace.

My son Richy at about 26 weeks

When I think of those sons, 1 who is 13 years old and with me today and 2 who spend their days in heaven, I cannot fathom the callousness of a Planned Parenthood employee telling a mother that if she happened to deliver her child prior to her abortion, to “flush it.” In another expose, a doctor explains that they simply would not help the baby survive. If the baby was born alive, they would not intubate, not intervene, despite the law- they would let him “expire”.

To argue that a child is invalid because they would need medical intervention to survive is unfounded. Who among us would doubt the humanity of a diabetic needing insulin to survive, a car accident victim needing medical services to prolong their lives? These small humans deserve protection, simply because they are human.

These reports in combination with the stories coming from the Gosnell trial are capturing the attention of the nation. Even people who would not identify themselves as pro-life are moved and sickened at the idea of infanticide and the growing realization that infanticide is an active part of the abortion industry. These stories are not standalone. In coming days and months, more and more of these illegal and inhumane practices are going to be brought to light. As they are exposed, employees and victims of Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry will be emboldened to speak out, and lives will be saved.

Let’s pray that these stories continue to be revealed. Pray for Lila Rose and the LiveAction team as they break into the industry and expose these practices, and continue to pray with us for the ending of abortion.

Earlier this week I told you about the newest Live Action report which shows the truth about the Mississippi Personhood Amendment 26 which is being voted on this Tuesday.

Planned Parenthood’s operatives have labeled themselves as Mississippians for Healthy Families and campaigned saying that the personhood amendment will remove all access to birth control (Not true. Click here for a video link if you missed it).

Then later in the week Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards wrote another manipulative letter to her email list with the sensationalistic subject “Taking away birth control from millions‏.” In this letter filled with lies, she asserts that “Tea party Republicans”:

[D]on't want women to have access to birth control — it's as simple as that. Ever since the Obama administration issued regulations requiring insurance coverage for birth control with no co-pays, anti-women's health groups and their allies in Congress have been fighting tooth and nail to take that coverage away from women… Let’s be clear: Tea Party Republicans and their allies are determined to undermine women's access to birth control. We are counting on you and champions of women's health in Congress to stand with us. And right now, the most important ally we have is President Obama. Because he has the power to reject this continuing assault on birth control coverage…. Denying women access to birth control is reckless, it is unconscionable — and it is deeply out of touch.

Now listen to me, Cecile, and listen closely, no one is denying women birth control. No law exists that is taking it away. It’s not being threatened. What you want is what no one has: Free access to prescription medication because you want it. No co-pays, nothing. We all pay for our medications unless we are poor and have some sort of Medicare coverage, but someone still pays for it. People with insurance pay. I pay $6 for generic medications and up to $60 for brand names. That’s normal.

I’m not a fan of birth control because virtually all hormonal birth control causes potential spontaneous abortions, but the real truth is that there is not a single law or threat in this nation right now to it being taken away.

Folks, Planned Parenthood lives on exaggerated rhetoric and scare tactics that reminds me of propaganda we used to study about World War II. Of course, since Planned Parenthood was founded on eugenics, a desire to exterminate a race, it’s no wonder they would use propaganda and false rhetoric to emphasize its point. Planned Parenthood pleas sound a lot like the “Our Homes are in Danger” rhetoric from this old war poster.

Public relations specialists advised the U.S. Government that the most effective war posters were the ones that appealed to the emotions. The posters shown here played on the public's fear of the enemy. The images depict Americans in imminent danger-their backs against the wall, living in the shadow of Axis domination.

It’s time for the Planned Parenthood propaganda to stop. Women are not in danger because we don’t kill babies, but babies are in danger because of Planned Parenthood. We are sick of lies, sick of abortion propaganda, disguised as birth control fears, sick of the outward toleration of killing the innocent so you Planned Parenthood can make a living. And in times of financial difficulty, we are surely sick of funding this private organization of hundreds of thousands of dollars a day.

On Tuesday Mississippians will vote on one simple question. The amendment reads:

Should the term 'person' be defined to include every human being from the moment of fertilization, cloning, or the equivalent thereof?

Because of Planned Parenthood’s propaganda, many people in Mississippi think that this proposal which simply says an unborn baby is a person will deny birth control, criminalize miscarriage and otherwise badger innocent women. This is false. The Mississippi Center for Public Policy has put together this important document which addresses specific fears. Please click here for a PDF that specifically explains the truth with fact-based evidence, not scare tactics.

Nowhere in this nation is there any proposal under any consideration that would ban the birth control many women take. I wish we would only allow non-abortive birth control but we don’t. And if Obamacare doesn’t give women 100% free birth control that’s not the same as taking away access to it. If Mississippi defines a person as a fertilized egg that doesn’t make birth control illegal. Those lies are war propaganda.

Planned Parenthood relies on the public to be ignorant. The problem is, sometimes we meet their expectations.

Remember those childhood stories where we learned that lying is bad? The little boy who cried wolf found out that when a real wolf was coming no one would help him because he kept lying about fake wolves--just like Planned Parenthood does.

Our friends over at Live Action have once again revealed Planned Parenthood crying wolf; this time they are crying across the state of Mississippi where on Nov. 8 Mississippians will vote on a personhood amendment. According to LifeSite News, this one may be the personhood amendment that passes: "Proposition 26, which will appear on this year’s November 8 ballot, would declare as persons 'every human being from the moment of fertilization, cloning or the equivalent thereof.' "

This pro-life climate in Mississippi has the pro-death crowd running scared. And it is pro-death, to spend money, time and energy to keep death legalized; that’s more than some nice “choice”--it’s a culture of death. But the real reason for crying wolf is the fact that the abortion provider will lose all its abortion money if unborn baby are people, which is why Planned Parenthood has coded their name with a nice sounding “Mississippians for Healthy Families” and started crying wolf all over the state.

But the real reason for crying wolf is the fact that the abortion provider will lose all its abortion money if unborn baby are people, which is why Planned Parenthood has coded their name with a nice sounding “Mississippians for Healthy Families” and started crying wolf all over the state.

The video begins with documented evidence that “Mississippians for Healthy Families” is funded and run by various Planned Parenthood organizations across the US; not local Mississippians. Planned Parenthood received nearly $350,000,000 in tax money from the government in 2008 alone. Planned Parenthood-sponsored ads, under the guise of Mississippians for Healthy Families, claim that Mississippi’s Personhood Amendment 26 will ban IVF, contraception, and birth control. Today, at a press conference featuring Mississippi doctors, the claims were refuted.

Indeed, have a look at this video. Because Planned Parenthood realizes that the people of Mississippi are smart enough to choose LIFE on Nov. 8, they resorted instead to scare tactics, causing women to believe birth control won’t be available. While it’s true that most forms of hormonal birth control are abortive, this amendment does not outlaw birth control. However, Planned Parenthood is disguising itself and using this lie to terrify women that they can’t use any kind of birth control. Read the text in the video and listen closely as Live Action documents the true identity of Mississippians for Healthy Families and how even the Mississippi Department of Health laughs at the lie that birth control will be outlawed. It’s just another fairy tale from the organization that cried wolf.

Cliff Stearns (FL) announced, "We’re going to bring Health and Human Services Secretary Sebelius, put her under oath in the spring and ask her to explain what is she doing about these videos." He is referring, of course, to the Live Action undercover videos that have been release in recent weeks that potentially expose illegal activity within Planned Parenthood.

Stearns issued a warning saying he'd ask the Department of Justice to investigate Sebelius if she refuses to answer questions before the Energy and Commerce Committee Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, which he heads. He also added,"We’re not going to wait for Attorney General [Eric] Holder to do anything. And if she lies, then we’re going to ask the attorney general to investigate her."
